Roscoe Outlaw · 12-07-2006, 10:22

how much will the d2 cost?

Martinp · 12-07-2006, 10:26

None at all yet sadly.

But I am guessing that it will be more expensive than the iPod Nano in the same capacity.

ubrikkean · 12-07-2006, 12:38

The translated Korean rates are:

2 GB: 209,000 SKW = 228.24 USD
2 GB DMB: 249,000 = 271.92
4 GB: 239,000 = 261.00
4 GB DMB: 279,000 = 304.64
6 GB: 279,000 = 304.64
6 GB DMB: 319,000 = 348.37

The prices should be lower than that in actuality though, all the other prices I saw for other products were higher than they actually are in the States.

Well, there deffinitly isn't going to be a DMB version in the res of the world, so you can scrap that option ;-)

DMB is very different to DAB - check up wikipedia for the details:

Well of course! the nano plays music and shows resized photos. that's it. with all of the features that this thing gives, it's WELL worth paying a little extra for.

Here in NZ it looks like the D2 will be cheaper than the iRiver Clix, which has far less features.

In my country television standard is called dvbt. Is it same thing as dmb or can dmb use dvbt as signal source and work with it?

And far more defective by design things like propertialy usb connector, crapy charging, only mtp mode. And clix have 1/2 battery life etc.

Just i ... i will pay more for this and and take it disadvantages - its bigger and quite uglier an probably i will need to use stylus for control it.

BTW i don't want fm or video or tv or whatever, just mp3 player, but i think this is still best (but quite big ): ). Beside of this there are only some chinese [who know quality] players \:

Ahhh a nice six gig player like this will look good in my pocket

Konechiwa · 12-10-2006, 15:09

that 2 gig looks good for me for a portable solution. I'll wait till someone has a sale at least though. No sense in paying full price!

pixels · 12-22-2006, 19:04

wow, what?

304.64$ for a 6 GB player like the D2 is .. amazing!

now, add the cost for a 4gb flash card (~70). 10gb for less than 400 with all those features. i'm sold. i love my ia6, and this will be a wonderful upgrade.
